Eight Years Ago Today......

Just got off the phone with a young E-5 from Ft. Drum, NY...he was wounded in Afghanistan. He is currently in a rehabilitation battalion attached to the 10th Mt. Division. He is one of the guys going into the woods next week with me...there are 3 from Ft. Drum and one from NYC.

We talked a little about his combat expereinces...these guys are something else...real heros. They are all excited about the trip...he said he won't sleep between now and Thursday.

Here's pic of the memorial we have at the farm where we live....

We have this granite memorial and a flag pole to memorialize that day.
